Hookipa Pharma Inc. (NASDAQ: HOOK) is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company developing a new class of immunotherapeutics, targeting infectious diseases and cancers based on its proprietary arenavirus platform that is designed to reprogram the body`s immune system. HOOKIPA`s proprietary arenavirus-based technologies, VaxWave®*, a replication-deficient viral vector, and TheraT®*, a replication-attenuated viral vector, are designed to induce robust antigen specific CD8+ T cells and pathogen-neutralizing antibodies. Both technologies are designed to allow for repeat administration while maintaining an immune response. TheraT® has the potential to induce CD8+ T cell response levels previously not achieved by other published immuno-therapy approaches. HOOKIPA`s “off-the-shelf” viral vectors target dendritic cells in vivo to activate the immune system. HOOKIPA`s VaxWave®-based prophylactic cytomegalovirus vaccine candidate is currently in a Phase 2 clinical trial in patients awaiting kidney transplantation from living cytomegalovirus-positive donors. To expand its infectious disease portfolio, HOOKIPA has entered into a collaboration and licensing agreement with Gilead Sciences, Inc. to jointly research and develop functional cures for HIV and Hepatitis B infections. HOOKIPA is building a proprietary immuno-oncology pipeline by targeting virally mediated cancer antigens, self-antigens and next-generation antigens.
Transcriptic is a very small company. We like it that way. Our work culture is an unstructured environment where you can do your best work supported by a group of your peers. Everyone sets their own goals, and everyone is empowered to think creatively. We work hard and we focus, but we don`t do all-nighters or heroic pushes. Grinding yourself into the ground is a fast way to introduce bugs. Life science demands precision; we take our time and we get it right. We use commercial-off-the-shelf solutions when they`re available, and we aren`t afraid to open them up to get to more exacting standards—and if we can`t find it, we build it. We`re completely devoted to solving Transcriptic`s challenges as cleverly as possible to build solid, reliable, intelligent solutions.
